I should think twice. I’ve chosen Celcom Broadband since i’m always on the go. But i regret it now. First, the availibility of the service is not consistent, sometime I can connect, sometime I can’t. And now I’ve got few more problems with Yahoo! Messenger, Yahoo Mail account and few webpage i cant browse. But the speed is okay for me, about 300-340kbps. I hope they(celcom) can solve this problem as soon as possible before i end up changing to Streamyx or Maxis Broadband(I heard only few issues being reported, than what I’m having now). Tq.

I just terminate my Celcom broadband package. ONLY once the 5GB monthly is used , the internet speed is limited and become unstable.
Otherwise its ok. Btw, celcom no longer send a reminder for the monthly limit, but the speed become very slow so it impossible for u not to notice it.
Now i’m using celcom rm20 weekly unlimited. I having a new problem with this package. Celcom frequently HIJACK and REDIRECT to these server: 83.145.96.141 and vlbdc.com just to show a message that they “failed to connect” Hope they will solve it SOON.

P/s: Back in dial-up era, i used to accumulates total usage time to calculate phone bill. It cost 1+1.5 sen per minute. Now, we need to accumulate bytes. Hope that service provider also have fair service policy.

Haha, thanx for the reply. My usage hasn’t reach 5GB(maybe around 2-3GB) yet. But it’s damn slow now!It’s damn slow that i can prepare my instant coffee b4 sourceforge done loading. “bytes are crawling thru the air”, that’s what my friend describe the phenomena of this terrible connection speed. And now I regret my choice even more. Issues just popped up from nowhere when I’m using this damn service. My friend subscribe to broadband daily, yet he got HSDPA signal up to 350kbps bandwidth. First week I got HSDPA signal, browse fast n now it’s gone. I thought it was my laptop probs, but when I try it on different laptop, I got the same result.

i’m using maxis broadband RM68/month package or RM58/month(if paid via credit card) w/o modem with 1.5GB download limit…
so far the most speed it can reach is 120KB/s download…but after i have excess the download limit it will drop to 20~50KB/s…
i’m using maxis broadband around UUM campus with HSPDA or UMTS connection…
somehow sometimes it can’t reach HSPDA or UMTS so it will be connected to EDGE (30~40KB/s download speed) or GPRS (10~20KB/s download speed)…
i haven’t try it yet at Kuching or somewhere in Sarawak…
i hope because of no one using maxis broadband at my place so i can reach maximum speed of download…LOL…

..and surprisingly, after running few test here today, the speed is quite okay. Here, at the “edge of sarawak”, the maximum speed is around 220~228kbps.😮 (<- if i were to make smiley in ym)
Location for "here" is confidential. Hahaha.
So, i gez, it should be really okay at centre of Kuching.
